1990s and early 2000s produced lots of these types. Previously called machine operators and technicians the confident ones litter top blue chip companies and govt departments over. Certification is recent and they must have positioned themselves as managers setting standards for later certified fellows to join. Know lots of these from yore. Those hardware technicians became later day ICT managers.....

With interest and the internet I believe you can succeed in the ICT sector with little formal education... actually some computer science graduates are not so very good technically

Only took a 10 minute conversation for me to realize that some so called ICT gurus are just dumb...Kumbe.

I wonder who's dumber...The ICT fella who worked for years under this fella or the HR who he actually conned...I can't see how anyone did not know that he did not know jack from jill...Eishhh...How now? The HR managers should be investigated for hongo...There's no way you could sit down with this guy and not know he's spewing poppy cock.

In my view, he should get a job as a politician not be arrested.

Most highering managers especially in not so ICT core companies..like the ones mentioned don't have enough technical skills to hire! I swear if you were to go back to those mentioned companies you will get more like that!but what to do?

Actually if there is one field where academic qualifications mean nothing it is ICT. Things in ICT are ever evolving and what is more important is an ability to learn and adapt as opposed to a degree qualification.

One of the most brilliant programmers I have ever known was a guy who was unteachable after high school. He could only learn by teaching himself. There are guys at Safcom who knew him because they would contract him to complete complex projects. He now works outside the country where is very highly regarded.


Fair argument @Kusadikika. As a young man, I did come across this Nobert and he was fairly competent (plus somewhat modest). Then he disagreed with someone and was outed.

Perhaps that's why Adam Smith once opined '..a criminal is a person with predatory instincts who has not sufficient capital to form a corporation.'


Wonder where you met him, I did work with him in one of the orgs mentioned above, (different depts offcourse). He was a lazy skirt chasing guy whose best skill was manufacturing excuses for not doing his job and blaming other people, mostly service providers.
very true. Weird story where we worked together.
